Notes: T to indicate an inspection has been carried out and the result is satisfactory
C to indicate an inspection has been carried out and the result is not satisfactory (applicable to a periodic inspection only) N/A to indicate the inspection is not applicable to a particular item LIM to indicate that, exceptionally, a limitation agreed with the person ordering the work prevented the inspection being carried out (applicable to a periodic inspection only). 6. Non-conducting locations and Earth-free local equipotential bonding
� these are not recognised for general application. May only be used where the installation is controlled/under the supervision of skilled or instructed persons (see Section 418)
7. Electrical separation � the particular requirements of the Regulations must be checked. If a single item of current-using equipment is supplied from a single source, see Section 413. If more than one item of current-using equipment is supplied from a single source then the installation must be controlled/under the supervision of skilled or instructed persons, see also Regulation 418.3ò
1. SELV � an extra-low voltage system which is electrically separated
from Earth and from other systems in such a way that a single-fault cannot give rise to the risk of electric shock. The particular requirements of the Regulations must be checked (see Section 414)
2. Double or reinforced insulation. Not suitable for domestic or similar installations if it is the sole protective measure (see 412.1.3)
3. Basic protection � will include measurement of distances where appropriate
4. Obstacles � only adopted in special circumstances (see 417.2) 5. Placing out of reach � only adopted in special circumstances
